Luo Ronghuan pushed his military hat back, squinted his eyes, and wondered about some of the recent situations that had happened in the front village and back store. At this moment, several dark clouds rushed from the corners of the sky, and stars twinkled on the edges of the clouds, like the eyes of a thief. Luo Ronghuan pondered for a moment and ordered the sentry: "Pay attention to the enemy's movements!" ”

"Yes!"

"If you find something new, report it again!"

"Yes!" The sentry responded.

The meeting continued again. The first to open his mouth was Song Jiliu. He said, "Understood!"

Luo Ronghuan asked, "Understood?" How did you figure it out? ”

Song Jiliu said: "I think you are reasonable, so I figured it out!" ”

Luo Ronghuan said again: "If you understand based on these, then there will be discrepancies!" ”

Song Jiliu's eyes flashed in confusion: "What will be the difference?" ”

"Of course there is a discrepancy!" Luo Ronghuan affirmed first. Then he said in a somewhat reproachful tone, "There is a very ordinary account that you haven't calculated correctly, where is this 'understanding' and 'Ming'?" ”

"What's the account?" Song Jiliu.

"What account? That's a lot of dozens to one, huh! Political Commissar Luo said.

"Oh! That's a gross number. Song Jiliu continued, "We said it by estimating, and we didn't calculate it carefully, of course it wasn't very accurate." However, we want to use this approximate ratio to illustrate an argument. ”

"I clearly said that there is a discrepancy, that is, this 'argument' where your discrepancy is located!"

"Is there a discrepancy in the 'argument'?" Song Jiliu said.

"I ask you." Luo Ronghuan said, "Are we thousands? What kind of war are we fighting? ”

"People's War!" Song Jiliu said.

"For whom?" Political Commissar Luo asked.

"For the people!" Song Jiliu said.

"Rely on the right shot?" Political Commissar Luo asked again.

"By the people!" Song Jiliu said.

"How many people are there in our 'Marina'?" Political Commissar Luo asked again.

Luo Ronghuan asked one after another, and everyone had realized that their "ratio" was wrong. Therefore, he did not answer this last question.

However, Luo Ronghuan would not let him go easily, and then asked a series of questions: "The people in the coastal areas of Shandong are not only 'thousands', right?" Can the masses of the people not be counted as 'we'? How did you calculate the balance of power between you and us, your 'tens to one'? According to your algorithm, where are the masses counted? ……”

"I've turned the corner. That 'ratio' is wrong! Song Jiliu said.

Song Jiliu is a cheerful person. He has always fallen and climbed on his own, and he can afford to put it down. Anything you can't figure out, you never hide your opinions. Once you realize that you are wrong, you admit it straightforwardly. However, after Liu admitted his mistake, Luo Ronghuan changed the topic and said: "Of course, in our coastal area, the current situation of the struggle between the enemy and us, we have to count the enemy strong and I weak. Whoever doesn't know this is really a fool. ”

"Wrong! This shows that you are a good comrade! Political Commissar Luo said.

Song Jiliu smiled and nodded. Then he talked about another issue: "Since the enemy implemented the 'law and order strengthening campaign' and the 'three-light policy,' burning, killing, looting has become more and more brutal, and the anti-Japanese sentiment of the masses has been hit, and their enthusiasm is not as high as in the past. But our work of mobilizing the masses is much more difficult than before! ”

Luo Ronghuan glanced at everyone and said, "Which of you can give an example of 'difficult'." ”

Gu Mu continued: "Even the famous tigress on Qingkou Street, the Zhang family, didn't dare to go to the well in front of the devil's gate to fetch water!" ”

Luo Ronghuan asked: "What other examples?" ”

Gu Mu said: "I can't give more specific examples. ”

Luo Ronghuan asked, "Why?" ”

Gu Mu said: "These days, the Japanese secret service that patronizes Tongfangzi has been fighting, and he has not been idle, so how can he still take care of engaging in mass work!" ”

"Then how do you know it's 'much more difficult'?" Luo Ronghuan asked.

Song Jiliu grabbed it again and said, "Isn't this a louse on a bald man's head - is it obvious?" Besides, it can also be seen from some phenomena! ”

Luo Ronghuan listened to Jiliu's argument and felt that they had made the mistake of looking at the problem on the surface. In other words, he blinded the eyes with the enemy's false appearance of being strong from the outside and capable from the middle, so that he could not see the fact that the enemy would perish and we would be victorious.

This is what Luo Ronghuan thought in his heart. But he didn't talk about these big things in general. Right now, what he is thinking about is what kind of example, what kind of analogy, or what kind of facts to put on the table, to persuade Liu Mansheng and Song Jiliu, and at the same time to educate the big guys.

However, under the current circumstances, it is not tolerable for Luo Ronghuan to do this. Because they have only been in the coastal area for a few days, how can there be such a ready-made, known and example?

There are no examples that illustrate the truth, Luo Ronghuan would rather not speak than just talk about empty truths. Therefore, he had to listen quietly and think for a long time.

At this moment, in the villages near the pine forest, there were bursts of slamming doors, barking dogs, and the night cries of babies. These voices, though far apart, still faintly and intermittently entered the wild and barren woods.

"Please pause." Jiang Hua pointed in the direction where the voice came from and reminded people, "Listen! Eighty percent of the enemy has entered the earthen city. ”

Luo Ronghuan listened for a while and scolded fiercely: "Damn bandit! ”

"It's all dog stuff that doesn't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, they don't end well!" Following Yanagido.

At this time, his mind suddenly flashed, and he said, "Not bad! Think about it, the enemy is so noisy in the middle of the night that he doesn't even let the people sleep peacefully, can the masses not hate them? ”

Sun Jixian said: "Of course you have to hate them!" ”

"These dogs are abominable!" Jiang Hua said, "Don't let the masses sleep peacefully, is this a trivial matter!" He said and said angrily, "The most hateful thing is that they arbitrarily kill people and set fires, rob and rob indiscriminately, and ** women ......"

"These beasts!" Liu Haitao stomped his feet to the ground and said, "However, our enemies are different from the beasts in the deep mountains and old forests, they are not protected by the people!" ”

"Yes! They are beasts with brains! Gu Mu continued.

"That's right! Are they going to kill people and set fires for Ha? Sun Guang asked himself and replied, "Let me see, they want to scare the masses through this brutal means of exterminating human nature!" In a vain attempt to make the masses of the people dare not resist Japan anymore, nor dare they get close to the anti-Japanese people, the Eighth Route Army and others, so as to sever the flesh-and-blood ties between our party and our army and the masses of the people. ……”

"However, is the enemy's calculation wrong again," Luo Ronghuan said angrily, "The enemy killed the children of the common people, can the father and mother not hate the enemy?" The enemy killed the fathers and mothers of the common people, can the sons and daughters hate the enemy? The enemy has raped the wives of the common people, but can he not hate the enemy for the sake of his husband? The enemy burned down the houses of the common people, and the owner of the house could not hate the enemy? ……”

Luo Ronghuan was talking, and the sentry came to report again: "Chief! The enemy is out of Tucheng Street and is coming here! ”

"How many of them are there?"

"More than three hundred!"

"How far is it from here?"

"It's less than two miles away!"

"Keep watching!"

"Yes!" The sentry went again.

Song Jiliu proposed: "Chief! Shall we him? ”
